Summary: Text doesn't display in menus and popup boxes Product: Wine Version: 0.9 Platform: Other URL: http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~plinich/wine-notepad.png OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-binary AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: plinich@cse.unsw.edu.au
The URL points to a screen snapshot PNG inage showing the problem, namely that applications such as notepad appear with no text in the menubar, and also sometimes without text in popup boxes. The snapshot shows notepad (the one which comes with wine) and its "Info..." box.
I am running wine on a 500MHz dual-processor Intel box, with the display on a Macintosh G4 alptop (running OS X 10.3.9) via SSH. You can see the commands I ran in the window behind the notepad window in the screen snapshot.
The Macintosh (the display) is called "g4". The Linux box (where wine runs) is called "ptang".
The Linux system is running Fedora Core 4, fully patched, with wine installed from the winehq RPM:
[master@ptang ~]$ uname -a Linux ptang.cse.unsw.edu.au 2.6.13-1.1532_FC4smp #1 SMP Thu Oct 20 01:51:51 EDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [master@ptang ~]$ rpm -qa | fgrep wine wine-0.9-1fc4winehq [master@ptang ~]$
The problem is easily reproducible.
